- What do you check if your outboard has a spark but won’t start?
In this installment of our series on your outboard ignition system, we’re going to guide you through some of the things you need to check if you’ve checked for a spark and need to go further to troubleshoot problems with the ignition system on your outboard. Find parts 1 and 2 of our series here:
Part 1: How Does an Outboard Ignition System Work: • How Does an Outboard I...
Part 2: How to Test the Spark Plugs on an Outboard: • How to Test Spark Plug...
In this video, we’ll take a look at the fuses, switches, ignition coils, the stator, and the regulator rectifier to run down our outboard ignition problems. As a best practice, you should start with the simplest things first, and for us that’s the main fuse on the ignition. From there, we’ll dig deeper and show you how to troubleshoot ignition problems on your boat.

As someone who knows nothing about my boat and engine this 3 part tutorial is crucial for me and others who are confused and stuck on what to do. I learned more from this mini series than I could ever ask someone to explain. What a great tool to know whether or not you can DIY or you’re totally fucked and need to take it in.
John, gotta say. We enjoy your videos greatly. Nobody does it like you
4:09 thank you for this tutorial. I look forward to more
I know nothing about boats thank you for yr videos ....im learning slowly 👍👍
Thank you for posting this. You saved me thousands of Dollars. My tilt wires were bare. So I rewrapped them. Changed the spark plugs. Checked all the fuses. Replaced the fuel pump from tank to engine. Works like a dream
Hello sir,im from phillipines i like ur explaination...
I love how you work on bikes and boats
Great info ! Thanks
Love the vids. Could we get one listing symptoms and possible causes? For example I hear a click when I turn the ignition but the starter motor doesn't do anything. New correct fully charged battery. Guage reads about 13V. All electronics to that battery work perfectly. I was told the click I hear is the solenoid so I assume the starter is bad but I only have 35 hours on the motor with regular maintenance done by a licensed tech.
Hey John, I love your videos! They're always very informative!!
I was wondering if you could provide me with some advice. I have just replaced the head gaskets on my 2007 F225 Yamaha. The engine is running, however only it's only running on the three cylinders on the port bank. The starboard bank does not appear to be firing. I have checked for spark and fuel, and the injectors all seem to be working ok. Compression on the port bank is 170-175 psi, on the starboard bank it is 150-155 psi. I have checked the spark plugs, and they come out black and slightly wet on the starboard side. The port side is firing ok. I'm at my wits end trying to figure out the problem. I have spoken to several Yamaha mechanics with no success. Nobody seems to be able to tell me what's wrong. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!
awesome stuff. you should do a 9.9 lower end class.
Awesome video 👏
GREAT INFO.I AM WORKING ON MY 2001 YAMAHA 250 HP 2 STROKE
thank you
Hey John,
My 2017 Yamaha 70 4 stroke will only run at 4000 max. It also runs rough at less than 1000.
When I tried to pull one spark plug wire at a time, the engine dies with any wire off.
What could cause this.
I’ve changed the fuel, filters and injectors.
Thank you in advance
ur awesome!
I have a EFI four stroke 30 hp. Mercury. Before I launch my boat I check to make sure my outboard turns over and I'll run it for a few minutes. I have a brand new battery. After I launch my boat I turned the key to start it . But all it would do was make a clicking sound. It seemed like the sound was happening in the frontal part of the outboard. Can you please help me find and solve this problem.
Why would a 2013 mercury 30hp electric start tiller handle have to be cranked for 7-12 full seconds before firing. Not sure what to chase down.
Electric start having to be held down 7-12 seconds before it fires 🔥. Any ideas??? 2013 mercury EFI 30hp 4 stroke tiller handle.
John I Have a problem, my Mercury nitro series x R 6 1 50. Will not start tries to turn over, but will not. And has a good battery not clicking? But actually trying to start but wont turn over.
how can i check please the diode cable going to the solenoid and ground , my 60 merc is not cranking ,starter works motor starts only on pull cord , but when turning key nothing happens ,
Shouldn‘t it be that if the shut off terminal wire and ground shows low ohms when ignition switch is on the switch has gone bad? Should of terminal wire to ground should kill the ignition. Or do I have a false thinking?
Found out my Yamaha 200 the first and second cylinder is not working. Can you tell me the list of parts that control the first and second cylinder I will change them all.
I have a Johnson 85 horse 1977 outboard engine.
It's whistling in the Ignition and on the motor I won't turn over.
Please help.
hello sir can i ask question sir regarding ofthe engine problem..yamha 300hp ..the has 3 engine but the center one is not desame rpm port and starboard is 5000 rpm but center is 4700 when it goes to 4700 rpm suddenly is goes down in 2200 rpm and the is jerking..i replace the fuel pressure regulator.spark plug and filter in relief valve
Motor runs as long as you hold ignition switch closed. Starter disconnects after motor starts and runs and throttles up but turns off immediately after I release the switch. Will run as long as I hold the switch closed. Ignition switch???
I have a 50 mek 4 stroke the choke not ingage and no fire have changed egnishon and kill switch on throtel still nothing
What would make my starter run all the time Not get stuck up. Run all the time I had to disconnect the battery
Hola buenas tardes aquí desde argentina. Pregunta un motor Evinrude etec 115 año 2008 no me carga la bateria. Es rectificador el mecánico me dice que tengo cambiar emm retificador está ahí adentro desde ya muchas gracias si me puede orientar un abrazo
Hay saya punya mesin evindrud..... Data Sensor pada mesin saya tidak keluar pada layar monitor , apa yg perlu di lakukan
I got a 50hp outboard and it's not getting fire to the plugs
what is the problem when the motor turn over but backfire causing it not to start
We’re you able to figure out the problem, because I’m having the same problem with my out bored motor.
Cool see
Got a 1992 9.9 evinrude and i triple checked/rebuilt the carb, replaced the power pack, charge coil, ignition coils, spark plugs, primer bulb, fuel pump, water pump, new fresh gas and STILL wont turn over. I have plenty spark from both plugs. And checked the killswitch and that works fine (obviously since i have spark). And whats weird is even when spraying ether in the carb, or spraying inside the spark plug holes, even putting a little gas in there, it STILL wont fire. Sometimes it sounds like it wants to for a second but then dies. Im at a loss here. Anyone who has any ideas much appreciated.
Did you figure out what’s wrong with your boat engine. I’m having a similar problem. I have spark but it won’t do anything even if I spray gas by bypassing the carburetor
@@vitaly19 i havent yet. I put it away for the winter and in the next few months im gonna go back to it. I bought a gasket kit and after i remove the block im gonna replace all the gaskets. I have a feeling when i remove some of the side plates to replace the gaskets im gonna find some badly clogged cavities.
Any updates? I’m having this exact issue with mine and can’t find anything online.
